Extract

The plants worked on in this Natural Order were the Carrot (Daucus carota L.) and the Parsnip (Peucedanum sativum Benth.). Both these plants store up reserve food in their thickened root and hypoeotyl, the disposition of the tissues being similar in both “roots.” For the extractions of their proteins, members of “races ” of these plants containing the minimum amount of core and fleshiest annuli of bast were taken, healthy, uniformly well-grown specimens being selected.
